Running for Great Causes

On 25th October 2015 Valentino’s Displays very own Antonio Valentino will be taking part in the South’s biggest 10 mile running event, the Great South Run, to raise money for those suffering with cystic fibrosis.

The Cystic Fibrosis Trust is the only UK-wide charity that provides assistance, practical advice and care to those suffering with the condition and the people who care for them. The charity is dedicated to promoting excellence in clinical care and research in order to provide those with cystic fibrosis the best possible quality of life.

Passing some of Portsmouth’s most scenic views Antonio will start his 10 mile journey at Southsea, on Clarence Esplanade, where he will then run past some of the most iconic sites Portsmouth has to offer, including Portsmouth Dockyard, the Cathedral, Spinnaker Tower and the HMS Victory. On the last stretch of the run Antonio will pass along the sea front of Portsmouth which is well known for giving runners the opportunity to get their personal best time.

The team at Valentino’s are also very excited for the event and are looking forward to cheering Antonio along. If you want to offer your support, why not make a donation to Antonio’s just giving page to help fund this worthy cause, or if you fancy a day in Portsmouth come along and cheer Antonio on!
